that Belfast should have Il steam fire engine unit

The Day We (DO not AlwayS) Celebrate

The nations anniversary was not particularly
observed in this city. Shortly after midnight the
fourth was ushered in by the small boy with the
tin horn. The church bells were rung and the us
ual noise made with fire crackers, &c. Places of
business were open in the forenoon, but were gen
orally closed later In the day. Private parties
drove ont of town and spent the day to suit their
own convenience. Excursions were made to Rock ,
land and Verona. In the evening there were some
private displays Of fire works, but upon the whole
1t was Il very quiet fourth.

An Accident Caused by Fire Crackers. What
the Law Says.

Wednesday evening" June 29th, Mrs. 0. G..
White Of this city thrown from her carriage
and quite seriously injured. She was driving
down Market street and when near High street
boy threw a fire cracker which exploded near the
horse frightening the animal The carriage was
overturned and Mrs. White thrown violently to
the street Three ribs were broken, the right
shoulder badly hurt and other injuries received.
The carriage was also badly lamaged. There is a
statute against the sale Of fire crackers which
says:
"Whoevcr sells, offers for sale or gives away
crackers, squibs, rockets or other fire works or
ires or throws the same in any town, without the
license OF the municipal officers therefor shall he
lned not less than ten dollars to the use of the
town.
In this connection we also quote the law against
another nuisance, the toy pistol:
Whoever has in his possession Il toy pistol for
the explosion Of percussion caps or blank cart.
RIDGES with intent to sell it, or sells or gives it
away, shall be fined not less than five nor more
than Sl0O, ami shall be liable for all damages re-
sulting from such selling or giving away.
There is also city ordinance against the sale of
lire crackers, and for the past three years there
have been but few sold. Mr.. White says he
shall doubtless begin action against the city for
damages.

on deposit for payment of coupons outstanding and
for all dividends declared, sufficient to meet
the entire amount due and unpaid. The financial
condition of the road, so far as payment of divi-
dends, seems to be well defined now that unless
some unforeseen charges for legal expenses should
arise it is reasonable to expect semi annual divi-

nearly one and half on the non-preferred, while
the present funded debt remains at per cent. All
